    As far as myself,I have tried all of them,even schneider has told me the are requiring at least 6 months in a tractor/trailer.I only have 2 months in a T/T and 5 months in a straight truck which doesn't help me at all when trying to get in a tractor.

    when i started talking to crst last week they said they were hiring south of flint and grand rapids, i live south of 94 by the airport and have had a very hard time getting hired on with a company most want a seamless employment history, if i had that i wouldn't be calling them looking for work they don't seem to understand how construction jobs work.

    As of right now I am working part time with Ryder rental as a transfer driver. I keep putting apps in online and in person if possible. Just nothing here in Michigan

    A guy I used to work with at OD is driving for them right now I think. I see they want to run you to death and pay nothing.

    Yup, thats them. The only way to get paid for anything is to wirte everything down on the trip envelope, and keep records for yourself and then call her out on it when she doesnt pay you for it. Only way to get home time was to tell the dispatcher no and then hang up.
